Against my better judgment I'm going to give this a go today to inspect the mechanisms that hold the glass, as the glass rattles, window up or down, and both sides too. I'm think there will be some locating lugs and they're worn.

Something like this thread but for the R32 GTR would be terrific but I can't find anything.

Can you link me up if there is something. If not, could someone give me some top tips. Hard to find screw locations, tricky bits, the overall order in which you go about it etc.

Thanks.

Here's one for the 33 also. Read this: http://www.skylinesa...rattling+window

The 32 is same and fairly easy and just use common sense

Door handle surround comes out easy (no screws)

Lift the electric window panel and remove cabling

Remove plug and screw from door handle insert, remove

Locate and remove the screws around the door card extremeties (about 5) none hidden

The door card is clipped in also. Remove with caution and use a flat head screw driver as close to each clip as you can

Lift the door card and jiggle till it is free

Ta Da

Adjust and re-assemble in reverse order

Otherwise that should be it. Once you remove the trim around the door handle, the plastic trim & screw for the door pull.

It should just pop off easily. The GT-T has an extra screw point up the front over a R33 GTR, so i'd say a R32 GTR wouldn't have this either.

There might also be 3 screws along the bottom of the door skin holding it in place.

Then just pry the locator plugs out (just slowly by hand is fine, start from the bottom), and then lift up and off it comes!

Argh me harties. All went to plan. Passenger side has a couple more screws. One is obvious as it's in the handle only on the passenger side and has a clip in cover over it. The other you need to pop out the window switch and it's sitting in behind there. Adjustment pretty easy. Took it for a quick drive and to an extent the adjustment has worked but there's still more rattling things in there.

Thanks for your input.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
